BUG?: kopano-python: restrictions in folders not working

marlemion

Very simple example:

#!/usr/bin/env python2
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import kopano
import MAPI

# Kopano Server, User and Password
kopano_server = 'http://xxxxx.net:236/kopano'
kopano_user = 'xxx'
kopano_password = 'xxx'

# Connect to kopano
server = kopano.Server(server_socket=kopano_server, auth_user=kopano_user, auth_pass=kopano_password)
store = server.user(kopano_user).store
folder = store.folder('Sent Items')

restriction = MAPI.Struct.SContentRestriction(MAPI.FL_SUBSTRING, MAPI.Tags.PR_SUBJECT_W, MAPI.Struct.SPropValue(MAPI.Tags.PR_SUBJECT_W, str('Your Ref')))

mails = folder.items(restriction)

for mail in mails:
    print(mail.subject)

fails with

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./example.py", line 20, in <module>
    for mail in mails:
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/kopano/folder.py", line 364, in items
    restriction=restriction,
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/kopano/table.py", line 46, in __init__
    self.mapitable.Restrict(restriction.mapiobj, TBL_BATCH)
AttributeError: SContentRestriction instance has no attribute 'mapiobj'

This seems to be a bug. Can anybody comment on this? It is a major limitation to the advanced use of the python module. Whether python 2 or 3 does not matter, I have tried both. Current stable version (8.7.17).

I think you mix the low level MAPI object (SContentRestriction) with high level folder API. There is a kopano.Restriction class.

So try something like

mails = folder.items(kopano.Restriction(restriction))

Thanks, that did it!
